Do You Know?

  • Colloid is a microscopically small substance that is equally dispersed throughout another material. Example: Milk, Ice cream, muddy water, smoke.
  • The lens formula and lens maker’s formula are applicable to only thin lenses. In the case of thick lenses, these formulae with little modifications are used.

Fill in the blanks:

1. The path of the light is called as _______________.

a. beam of light

b. source of light

c. ray of light

d. angle of light

2. The refractive index of a transparent medium is always greater than _______________.

a. 1

b. 0

c. 1.5

d. -1

3. If the energy of incident beam and the scattered beam are same, then the scattering of light is called as __________________ scattering.

b. refractive index

c. Wave length

d. Medium

5. Amount of light entering into the eye is controlled by _______________.

a. cornea

b. iris

c. pupil

d. retina

State true or false:

1. Velocity of light is greater in denser medium than in rarer medium.

2. The power of lens depends on the focal length of the lens.

3. Increase in the converging power of eye lens cause ‘hypermetropia’.

4. The convex lens always gives small virtual image.

Match the following:

Column – I Column – II

1. Retina – path way of light

2. Pupil – far point comes closer

3. Ciliary muscles – near point moves away

4. Myopia – screen of the eye

5. Hypermetropia – power of accommodation

Consider the statements given below and choose the correct option:

Mark the correct choice as

(a) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

(b) If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

(c) If assertion is true but reason is false

(d) If assertion is false but reason is true

1. Assertion: If the refractive index of the medium is high (denser medium) the velocity of the light in that medium will be small.

Reason: Refractive index of the medium is inversely proportional to the velocity of the light.

2. Assertion: Myopia is due to the increase in the converging power of eye lens.

Reason: Myopia can be corrected with the help of concave lens.
